Stanford Sierra Camp
Shows no sign of notability. Reads like an adverstisement. Has been maintained pretty much by a single user who removed a previous prod tag by stating in his edit summary "This is a notable summer camp. Goggle certainly has some stuff on it meaning it is notable. Reads like an advertisiment? How?". Fails all current and proposed guidelines for notability, WP:CORP, WP:ORG.

 * Delete WP:NOT a tourist guide. ~ trialsanderrors 23:55, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The camp is operated by a large university (Stanford University), but because it is located away from the university's main campus, should probably continue to be described in a separate article. -- TruthbringerToronto 00:00, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I fail to understand how the ownership of the camp has the slightest bearing on the notability of the camp, ESPECIALLY given that its function is tangential, at best, to the mission of a UNIVERSITY. --Calton | Talk 08:47, 25 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Nonnotable kids camp. Bwithh 01:24, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. informative summer camp article. --JJay 13:16, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
 * And what have you learned, other than it's a camp, run in the summer, by Stanford? --Calton | Talk 00:10, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * What time they serve meals, the activites etc. ForestH2
 * I have a hard time believing that this is not irony. How is the information on mealtimes encyclopedic. Why not then create articles for every cafeteria on the planet? Pascal.Tesson 23:19, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Well? Why not create an article on all camps and have a wikiproject labeled summer camps? ForestH2 23:30, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. "The sum of ALL human knowledge". This statement as laid down by Jimbo Wales, is NOT selective. TruthCrusader 14:22, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Meaning that you have, once again, mistaken an encyclopedia for an indiscriminate collection of information or the Yellow Pages. --Calton | Talk 00:10, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Jimbo Wales does not determine Wikipedia policy. While notability/non-notability/degree of notability continues to be a matter of active debate for most Wikipedians, official Wikipedia policy such as WP:NOT clearly clashes with your overly literal intepretation of Jimbo's publicity statement.

 * Delete per Bwithh. Nacon kantari  22:05, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's just another summer camp run by a large organization, nothing special asserted about it. --Calton | Talk 00:10, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator. Dr Zak 14:23, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per JJay ForestH2
